My Journey from Roman Catholic to Agnostic Atheist | ASMR
4,731Dedicated to anyone that either has been or is currently on the same sort of journey. Allow me to bore you to sleep in this non-confrontational, laid-back talk about the road I traveled. I run a gamut of related topics such as: what it means to be an intellectual, some Catholic practices, how I was an altar boy, some of the people (artists, philosophers) that helped open my mind, how I feel you should avoid being religious about anything, and of course: where my beliefs are today.
Oh yeah: I'm still waiting for all the Just For Men black hair dye to come out that I used for the last Satan video.

What is ASMR? It is both a sensation and a medium.
ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and is the current, non-scientific name given to the feeling characterized as a pleasurable tingling sensation felt in the head, scalp, back and other regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering, personal attention or watching someone perform a task. It's like goosebumps, but much more pleasant.
ASMR videos are meant to intentionally help induce this sensation, also referred to as "tingles", but also provide a relaxing, calming, soothing, therapeutic and even entertaining experience for the viewer.
Many people who do not experience ASMR still enjoy the videos for their calming and sleepy effect.
